دانلود کتاب The Emergence of Towns: Archaeology and Early Urbanization in Non-Roman, North-West Europe

The Swedish Institute of Urban History 75 Years. An Anniversary Symposium, September 3rd, 1994.

This book documents the 75th anniversary symposium of the Swedish Institute of Urban History held at Stockholm University on September 3, 1994. It is based on the lectures and pre-prepared commentaries given at the jubilee conference. The contributors are all distinguished scholars within Swedish Scandinavian and European history, archaeology and geography.

The chronological and geographical range of the book is vast. It covers roughly 700 years, however, with concentration at the 300 years of Viking urbanism. In space it covers the northern parts of Europe from Ireland to the Ukraine. The themes of the articles vary from historiographical and synthetic discussions and analysis to deep digging and comparative approaches to particular urban archaeological objects.
